The 101st Airborne Division conducted its first assistance mission in Puerto Rico on Friday, transporting three medical teams to key hospitals in need of help.

Six HH-60 medevac Blackhawk helicopters from Team Medevac, an element of the division’s 101st Combat Aviation Brigade, took Disaster Medical Assistance Teams from Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport in San Juan to hospitals in Arecibo, Mayagüez and Ponce, according to an Army news release.

Team Medevac, which includes more than 70 personnel and eight HH-60 medevac Blackhawk helicopters, left Fort Campbell Wednesday on two C-5M Super Galaxy aircraft.

After arriving later that day at José Aponte de la Torre Airport, in Ceiba, soldiers from the team and airmen from the 22nd Airlift Squadron, 60th Air Mobility Wing and the 68th Airlift Squadron, 433rd Airlift Wing unloaded the helicopters. The soldiers then conducted test flights on Thursday before conducting their first relief mission Friday.
